She has called the little one Barney.
The new mum wrote on her instagram: “We have a beautiful son. Barney James Garner. All my dreams have come true”
The post featured a sweet black and white snap of Emily with Alistair and their new arrival lying on Emily’s chest.
The pair were soon flooded with congratulatory messages from famous pals.
“Yesyesyesyesyesyesyes,” said Stacey Dooley, who added a love heart.
“Congratulations lovely!” added Dragons’ Den favourite Sara Davies.
“Oh darling Em! Yay! Congratulations to you both. Loads of love and welcome to the world little Barney,” chipped in Lisa Snowdon.
“CONGRATULATIONS GUYS WE LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH,” posted Chloe Madeley.
“Aww congrats Ems!!!” said Ashley Roberts.
“Congratulations!! Xxx” weighed in Sophie Ellie Bextor.
Emily made her last appearance on the red carpet as a guest of Bafta.
The Inbetweeners actress had a baby blue dress made specially for television’s night of the year.
She told fans at the time: “I think I deserve a bafta for most club sandwiches consumed before 4pm?
“Huge privilege as always to attend Bafta.
“I had a particular idea in mind for what I wanted for my dress, and the very clever @franksldn made it for me in such a short space of time.
“I’ll treasure it always as the last dress I wore whilst pregnant to a red carpet event.”
The Sun revealed Emily was pregnant in December last year.
She is expecting her first child with her scientist boyfriend Dr Alistair Garner.

The actress revealed she was having a baby boy – and hoped he will benefit from her campaign to change the law around sexual consent.
Emily has bravely called for the law to recognise “affirmative consent”, which means both people have to say yes before sex.
“I want him to be a part of a really positive change,” she told BBC Breakfast.
“It starts with education… we need to have these conversations.”
Emily – who’s best known for playing Charlotte Hinchcliffe in Channel 4’s The Inbetweeners – has spoken openly about the role leading to her facing unwanted sexualisation online.
She made a BBC documentary exploring her experiences of sexual harassment last year called Emily Atack: Asking For It?
Earlier this month the star revealed her bizarre third trimester cravings.
Emily said: “Been asked a lot about what my current cravings are third trimester.
“It’s been nothing but homemade banana bread and pears.
“This looks burnt, but it’s not. It’s perfect.”
